The fuse is under the dash on the right in the fuse box. Your handbook will tell you which one.

Replacing the bulbs is a nightmare, there is a full set of instructions somewhere on here. You need to undo a bolt on the inside and not lose it after removing a bit of trim. The whole cluster pulls out. I think there is more to it than that, search for the guide.
 
The plastic speaker grille slides out, you then remove a large semi-blind grommet to reveal a daft nut recessed between the layers of bodywork. The tool kit has a plastic socket for removing this but I prefer a proper socket with long reach extension bar. After losing the nut in the car's nether regions I packed the gap with some spare fibreglass insulation to prevent it happening again.
With this removed, the assembly comes away after the 3 screws on the outside have been removed
 
I knew someone would remember the proper procedure!
 
if it's a cargo it won't have speakers in the back. I removed my rear cluster at the weekend so i could connect some wiring to the reverse lights for the reverse sensors i was fitting

So on a cargo there's 2 bolts to undo on the outside then 1 from the insider which can be seen without having to remove any trim. The nut thing you have to remove is a weird looking think. The drivers side was tight as hell so i had a look at the passenger side & it was broken where previous owner, or a garage, or whovever had removed it to hook up wiring for the towbar
